...you tried. And you meant well. It's more then I can say for some of the people in my life. For what it is worth, you were approaching me as if I were a problem to be solved, and…

>Oh, sure. If you mean donating blood, then by all means that's great. I thought you were talking about donating a kidney or part of your liver or something that could decrease you…

Doesn't that come down to what the view of what someone's 'normal' palette is? We say that someone's judgement is impaired under the influence of alcohol, but say the opposite when…
